I am still at it. Seems like it has been a different setup every year. As long as this motor has no issues, I am done playing with it. I just want to start driving it and enjoying it instead of constantly working on it.

Do you mean on William Penn Hwy Rt 22 Monroeville??? There isn't a Taco Bell on Golden Mile Hwy (Rt 286). I don't usually go up there and hang out. If I know there wil be some people from here up there then I will go. If it is a bunch of ricers then no.

Im about 45 min. north of Pittsburgh. A little place called Saxonburg. If you watch KDKA news, you might get lucky and see Saxonburg on the map when they do the weather.
